About 0RJS4ZZ
0RJS4ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a inspection procedure on the right carpometacarpal joint using a percutaneous endoscopic approach. In ICD-10-PCS, inspection means visually and/or manually exploring a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to Arthroscopy, hand and finger, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (80.24).
For a different body part, codes include 0RJ04ZZ (occipital-cervical joint), 0RJ14ZZ (cervical vertebral joint), 0RJ34ZZ (cervical vertebral disc), 0RJ44ZZ (cervicothoracic vertebral joint), 0RJ54ZZ (cervicothoracic vertebral disc), 0RJ64ZZ (thoracic vertebral joint) and 22 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0RJS0ZZ (open), 0RJS3ZZ (percutaneous) and 0RJSXZZ (external).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 513 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 514 (Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Hand or Wrist Procedures, Except Major Thumb or Joint Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
